Marcus, Maggie, and McKaylee

Wednesday, February 1, 2012

Hey everyone! It's been a long time since I post on here last. So I thought I'd go a head and post a new entry.

The last few months have been.......intresting........I believe would be the best term to use. I went from days, back to nights at work....Marcus is getting ready to deploy in June, and McKaylee is....well a 3 year old. LOL

I've been having the same nightmare the last few nights though....it's one that I can't quite place. I don't understand it, but I do know that I don't like it. I wake up in a dead sweat. It feels as if someone has been sitting on my chest because I can't breathe. But I can't remember anything about the nightmare..

Marcus finally got his deploma for his Associates Degree in Web design and Animation. It only took freaking Provo College 10 weeks to tell him he actually graduated and then another month and a half to get the deploma...if not longer. I swear on my life, I will NEVER have anything to do with that school again.

McKaylee is finally starting to open up to people. This last weekend, we helped Robert and Debbie move to their new house and McKaylee, who up until friday had never said 1 word to robert, was playing with him and talking to him and having a blast. I'm so glad because I don't know if I can handle her crying and screaming much longer when he never did anything to her. Expecually with Marcus deploying. Also, we've been slowly telling her that in a few months, Marcus is going to go away for about a year....and she wont be able to see him or call him whenever she wants. So far, she's doing pretty good with that...how ever, now only daddy's allowed to put her to bed. I'm not. LOL....which is fine. I want them to spend as much time together as they can before he leaves...

So, I am REALLY bad at keeping up on this as my whole family likes to point out. And I'm sorry. In my defense, I've been working over 40 hours a week and I barely have time to breathe....

But on a good note, McKaylee is officially POTTY TRAINED!!!! She still wears a pull up at night, but it's just a precaustion. She wakes up every morning with a dry pull up on....But she does really good with just going in and going potty....or telling someone she has to go BEFORE she goes....it's wonderful!!!!! I just LOVE not having to change diapers anymore!! It's amazing! LOL can you tell I'm super excited about this??

Other news, Marcus is now working full time with the Miliary again on orders. He is working up at Camp Williams doing ground work.....He loves it. He's always secretly missed doing landscaping with Dave....and this let's him do it again. Not to mention, we have 2 incomes again and life is wonderful. I just went and got a new phone, marcus is getting one on the 1st.....I'm getting my hair done, and I went and got a pedicure last night with my mom! It's nice to be able to treat yourself to fun things without having to NOT pay a bill....Plus, this gives us insurance again and after his orders end, we can spend like $400 and pay for insurance for 1 year, so we'll be covered after he's no longer working....and it will expire just before he deploys and we get insurance again.....we think it's a good plan.

Well, I'm gonna go. I'm not gonna lie, I probably wont post again until next year.....seems to be my history. LOL

Well, I know it's been a very long time since I updated this blog. But as I lay here in bed, again, unable to sleep, I figured "why not!".

This day is going to be a very hard one for me today. It's supposed to be my due date. In case you didn't hear, I miscarried in January. So my baby that was supposed to be here in my arms any day now, is not. So I apologize a head of time if I'm an emotional wreck for a few days..

On top of that, I decided that being apart from Marcus royally sucks! I miss him so much! And so does little miss Mac. She has picked up on the "terrible two's" quite fast! OH how I miss those days where she would just lay on my chest and sleep......

On the plus side, Marcus will be home in as little as a month to 2 months! And I'm going to try to go out and see him the weekend after my birthday!

Also, another plus, I've been working for the company I work for(DishOne Satellite) for a little over a year now..... That's exciting! I've been working nights and it turns out there is a pretty good chance I might be able to move to day shifts! Oh what I would give to be able to be here when McKaylee get's up in the mornings AND when she goes to bed.....and not just one or the other! To be able to make plans to see my friends, and go out to movies and concerts and basically have a life again! Not that I've been missing a lot, and I'm very greatful to have my job! I actually LOVE my job, who can say that? Not a lot of people, but I do. I love the people I work for and the people I work with! But I do miss my family......

Anyways, I've been rambling on long enough! I'm going to shut this computer now, and attempt to go to sleep......HA I'm funny!

Well, As it seems, Marcus and I are going to be extending our little family of 3, to a little family of 4! I found out last week, that Marcus and I are expecting another baby. I am happy, but also, I'm scared out of my mind! We are barly supporting the 3 of us.....I don't know what we are going to do with another baby! But we are excited for this new adventure. I promise I'll update when I find more out about the preganacy...

So, my mom and dad picked McKaylee something up on Saturday. Her name is Binks. She is a 6 week old kitten....yes we now have a kitten and McKaylee is OBSESSED with her! She likes to pick her up and put her on the couch, then pick her up off the couch and put her on the floor...over and over and over again. We are still working with her on not picking her up by her neck. Here are some pictures...

So yesterday was Marcus and I 2nd anniversary. He took me out to dinner to my favorite place, Applebee's, and to see Angels and Demons. Then he also got me a dozen white roses!! My husband is so good to me! It's so weird to think that it was 2 years ago that we stood infront of our family and friends and got married! Time really goes by fast!
